Nimona by Noelle Stevenson - 272 pages
Lord Ballister Blackheart has a new sidekick -- Nimona. She's a shapeshifter with issues against authority and The Institution. As they battle the Institution, Nimona's powers seem to be more and more powerful. Just who is Nimona and what is her end goal?
I listened to the audiobook version of Noelle Stevenson's graphic novel. I had read the graphic novel when it first came out and found it interesting. However, I kept putting off trying the audiobook. I couldn't figure out how they would translate a graphic novel into an audiobook -- especially when the pictures are such a vital part of the story. Turns out, I liked the audiobook better than the print version. They added a narrator that told what was happening in the pictures. I think it worked better that way. I would definitely recommend this audiobook to anyone -- kid, teen or adult.

Nimona by Noelle Stevenson
Nimona by Noelle Stevenson - 266 pages
The villain Lord Ballister Blackheart is surprised when a young shapeshifter shows up at his door claiming to be his new sidekick. Nimona won't take no for answer. Together they work to bring down the Institution of Law Enforcement and Heroics and Blackheart's old friend the hero Sir Ambrosius Goldenloin.
This was an amusing graphic novel. It wasn't until the end of the book that I found it out had been a web comic before being printed in text. An interesting story for teens to read with heroes and villains often changing places.
